DEVELOPMENTS

1 .- LUIS ALBERTO DIAZ remarks.

Arturo Alape, the inquirer unfailing our reality .*
(Cali, 1938 - Bogotá, 2006)
By Luis Alberto Díaz Martínez. Communicator and writer

For Katia, Paloma, Manuel, Nicholas and all his loved ones.

A humanistic sensibility, warm, simple and pleasant as Arturo Alape the Master can only understand if you know, for example, from "very peladito" along with his older brother Alvaro, they had to walk the streets near the old central gallery of Cali, selling food to raise some money to would allow his mother Transito tenement where they lived in a family-supporting absent parent. That is, he never forgot his home and always took great pride.

Moreover, if a few years of primary school managed to take final impressions joined as that of April 9, 1948, when a few hours after the assassination of Jorge Eliecer Gaitan and chaos that swept across the country, discovered in the back of a newly arrived neighbor bike-resident in the same tenancy Cali-a bullet hole and blood stains covered her entire back as has been happening to Colombia since . That is, never ceased to be anxious or critical questions about the barbarity of their counterparts, seeking an answer at all costs.

And if one learns that officiating assistant and errand boy for a sensitive dentist got to know their facilities to combine shapes and colors, it also follows that force soon began their classes in drawing and painting in fine arts first, to continue with them after in Popular Institute of Culture when he had toured the municipalities of Valle del Cauca as a peddler of hardware until arriving finally in the zone of tolerance of Cali with an assortment of lingerie. That is, he was never crumpled to the effort to sustain dignity and pure pluck with moonlighting.

Until they made teenage and early adult, he became reader of poetry fighter English Civil War Letters of Theo Van Gogh and the great literature, participated in the conference as a student leader who helped Cali the fall of Rojas Pinilla dictatorship, political activism led from left-to Start the National Front-the birth of slums in Cali, and when no other alternative generation is committed to go to the mountain to observe with his own skin the armed insurgency and eventually decide that the way it should replace the pure analysis and creation. That is, took the bull by the horns and without resentment or the curses of some of his contemporaries was routed for the life of literary and pictorial art, paying the high price of exile, the ostracized interior, the decrease and ninguneo.

Then followed a dizzying journey through the intricacies of historical research, sociological and journalistic through the maze of reflection, debate, testing and university professor, for the adventurous and refreshing cliffs creating universes libertarian narrative with stories, novels, poetry and painting which, added to their vocation Travelers, for music lovers of bolero, tango, Caribbean rhythms, jazz and classical music, in addition to its culinary pleasures, turned it into a new kind of humanist who took literally the most of his life and humor in complicity with your loved ones. In short, a wonderful and irreplaceable legacy in scope to really understand why we keep killing between brothers and how we can stop if finally once and land owners all the powers in Colombia. ---
